Get away from it all at this exquisite property set amid peaceful Derbyshire countryside. Located on a working farm near the historic market town of Ashbourne, this dog-friendly holiday home offers flexible accommodation for four guests plus an additional sofa bed. Spend your days roaming around Carsington Water and the Peak District, then return here to rest and recharge in the open-plan living area and superb all-weather outdoor area.
This delightful courtyard property has been thoughtfully renovated to blend original features with contemporary comforts. Light and bright with heaps of character thanks to exposed brick walls and beamed ceilings, the living area is ideal for socialising and relaxing together. Unwind on plush sofas in the glow of the wood burner, prepare food in the contemporary kitchen, then perch at the breakfast bar for casual bites or gather around the dining table for lively mealtimes. At the end of each day, two beautifully presented bedrooms welcome you upstairs. Both have flexible zip-and-link beds and en-suites, and one has an additional sofa-bed, providing a family room arrangement if required. There’s a downstairs WC for convenience. The living space continues outside with an all-weather, open-sided barn where you can relax on outdoor sofas, savour a BBQ, or play games on the covered court. Guests benefit from private parking for two cars.
